IMPROVEMENT IN RUNNING-GEARS FOR WAGONS.
Specification-forming part of Letters Patent No. 143,249,1dated September 30, 1873; application lcd May 7, 1813.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, GARDINEE PHILLIPS, of Augusta, in the county of Kennebec and State of Maine, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Draft-Wagons; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, inwhich- Figure l is a side elevation, showing my improved wagon with two wheels removed; and Fig. 2, a bottom view.
Similar letters of reference in the accompanying drawings denote the same parts.
This invention belongs to that class of draftwagons whose rear ends are supported upon crank-axles iu order that they may be sufciently low to be loaded with ease, its object being to provide a strong and safe attachment between the rear and front axles of a draft or jigger77 wagon, and an attachment that will enable the body of the wagon to rest upon springs at both ends, and, at the same time, be sufficiently low for loading heavy articles. To this end the invention consists in the peculiar construction of the reach connecting the front and rear axles, and the attachment ofthe same to the front axle. Said reach is bifurcated at its rear end, and rigidly attached to the rear axle. The latter is in crank :form in order to lower the body, While the front end of the reach is bent upward and attached to the bolster and king-bolt of the front axle, as I will now proceed to describe.
In the accompanying drawing, A is the front axle, and B the rear axle, the latter being in crank form. Between the body C of the wagon and these two axles are interposed elliptical springs D E F, the former extending lengthwise of the axle, and the two latter extending lengthwise of the body and crosswise ofthe axle. F1 is a bifurcated reach connecting the two axles, the forks F2 F3 being fastened to the rear axle by means of clips, and the reach being bent upward at its front end, and jointed upon the bolt G, by which said reach is connected with an attachment, A', made fast to the rear side of the front axle.
Rods H are connected, at their rear ends,
with the reach F1, and extending thence in a direction inclined upward to an eye, H', at the front end of the rods H, which eye encircles the king-bolt Gr. The spring D is fastened upon a bolster, J, which is secured to the front end of the bar F1, so that the spring D oscillates with the body when it turns on the king-bolt. The front end of the reach F1, where it is attached to the bolster J, is provided with a segmental plate, J1, which, in connection with a similar plate, K, :attached to the top of the axle A, constitutes the fthwheel. The plate J1 has a lug, J2, which is bent under the plate K, as shown in Fig. 1. N representsa brace extending from the bent portion of the reach F1 to the upper side of the bolster.
This connection of the reach to the axles is extremely secure and strong, allowing the body to be located sufciently low to be easy of access. The bifurcated rear -endls of the reach enable it to be attached, at two points, to therear axle; and its connection is additionally strengthened by a transverse bar, T, attached to the reach, and rods U, extending from the ends of the bar-T to the rear axle, as
shown.
I claim as my mventionl. The reach F1, bifurcated at its rear end,
bent upward at its front end, in combination with the rear crank-axle B and front axle A, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
2. The reach F1, bent upward at its forward end, and attached, by the bar T and rods U, to the rear axle, by the braces H and eye H to `the king-bolt, and by the segmental plate J and brace N to the bolster, substantially as described.
3. The combination of the segmental plate J 1, formed on the end of the reach F1, and provided with the bent lug J2, with the corresponding plate K on the axle A, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
